title: Measurement of platelet aggregation peptide inhibitors by ultrasonic interferometry.
abstract: Several peptide inhibitors of thrombin- or collagen-induced platelet aggregation and of the interaction between glycoprotein Ib and von Willebrand factor were studied by a new method--ultrasonic interferometry (Echo Cell). Inhibition of aggregate formation in a concentration-dependent manner was observed. The sensitivity of the method was 3 to 40 times higher than that of classical turbidimetry.
